December 2009 after a return trip for Thanksgiving Holiday with family my scalp started itching intensely day & night. Went to the walk in clinic & saw physician. He said problem more than likely was just an allergy reaction to a shampoo or hair product. Gave me a topical solution "Clobetasol Propionate” and told to apply when itching.

On the second week of my treatment, I have seen a bit of a change in my skin. Dark patches on my skin have started to clear up. I am still very itchy and my back has a lot of bump that are healing slowly. Everything below my thighs to my feet are also showing signs of healing. The lesions are deeper like you told me.

Morgellons Research

I Doctor Karjoo have made amazing discoveries in Morgellons patients. There is real suffering in these patients. I am able to treat and help return patients to a normal life style.

My current Research on Morgellons may be viewed from the listings in the side bar at the left.

Research on Morgellons is ongoing and I plan to submit follow up studies as they become available. There is increasing interest in this study as more and more, long time sufferers of these symptoms contact me looking for answers.

If you have any questions about my research or the details in this article please contact me at my office at (714) 636-0261

KARJOO’S SKIN PHENOMENONREPLACING UNKNOWN MORGELLONS DISEASE

The term “Morgellons” was coined in 2002 by a woman name Mary Leiato, whose young boy suffered a rash and ulcer around his mouth, combined with fibers that protruded from his skin. When this issue became prominent on the Internet, a lot of people rushed to the clinics and told physicians that they were suffering from Morgellons disease. This terminology was not known in the medical community and the presentation of the patients was very bizarre; the medical community, therefore, did not understand what they were dealing with. Many physicians refused to accept these patients, and no Morgellons disease treatment was offered. Some physicians labeled them as delusional or psychotic and referred them to a psychologist. After a while, many victims became hopeless, losing their jobs and families; ultimately, a few even became suicidal.

In 800 B.C., the first Persian physician, Zakaria Razi said that any human disease should be first given a name and terminology according to physical and historical findings, then researched by the experts and scientists until they find the cause and present it to the medical community. The final step is finding the treatment and following up with the patient.

In the 21st century, with all of our vaunted medical knowledge, state-of-the-art facilities, and capable researchers, combined with donations and centers for discovery of unknown diseases, we have still accepted this term Morgellons with no research or proof. We are long past due for proper research and treatment. Dr. Rahim Karjoo has been aware of this skin phenomenon and its cause since the early 1990s. He has clearly demonstrated that this skin phenomenon is due to the toxicity of silicone silica, both endogenous and exogenous. While he was reviewing hundreds of cases of silicone breast implants for women, he discovered skin lesions, as well as other general signs and symptoms identical to those exhibited by victims of this so-called Morgellons disease. 10% of recent Morgellon’s cases involved endogenous silicone implants. Three weeks after removing breast implants, patient’s skin healed, and “Karjoo’s Phenomenon” disappeared.

Dr. Karjoo states: “I am in the process of publishing my work on this subject. Victims of this condition, as well as the medical community at large, will see that this ‘unknown skin phenomenon’ is actually a known skin phenomenon.” The result of this presentation is to change the name of “Morgellons” to Skin Phenomenon of granulomatous dermatoses due to toxicity of foreign body material with sub groups of perforating disorder collangenosis, perforating folliculitis, ellastosis perforans serpiginosa, and folliculitis in cutem penetras. The histopathology and clinical presentation of this skin phenomenon is in the process of being presented in a Dermatology and Environmental publication. The toxicity of silicone silica also will be addressed in an Environmental publication.Further detail and information refer to (www.morgellonsmedicalcenter.com)

Morgellons Disease Research

The following contents were written by third parties for general educational information on Morgellons disease. Dr. Karjoo and Morgellons Medical Center were not involved in the writing or production of these contents. To get more information on Morgellons, the research about this disease and treatment options, please contact our office and set up a Morgellons disease treatment consultation.

Morgellons disease is a condition that affects the hair as well as the hair follicle leading to a lot of changes in the structure of the hair and the follicle. It can lead to the spread of infection as well as other changes that are also accompanied by inflammation, ulceration, and infection of the skin. In 85% of the cases, renowned Morgellons disease research specialist Dr. Rahim Karjoo found a strong presence of particles such as silica, silicone, and polyurethane on the skin’s surface, as well as in the deeper layers of the skin.

Patients who visit Dr. Karjoo’s facility are asked to obtain hair samples as well as a biopsy of the skin lesions, which are then checked at the lab for Morgellons disease. In most of the cases, microscopic examination reveals that there are very obvious changes to the hair filament with varying thickness, color, and other abnormal changes in the hair shaft as well as hair follicle. Most patients also suffered from abscess formation, ulceration, and fungi. The skin’s surface showed a strong presence of silica or silicone particles, which also penetrated the skin.Based on the extensive Morgellons disease research conducted by Dr. Karjoo, it is clear that this illness is caused by the nanoparticle silica and this leads to unusual skin and hair conditions, known as ‘Karjoo’s phenomenon.’ A lot of information is available based on years of research by Dr. Karjoo. Studies have been conducted on toxicity and diseases that are caused primarily due to the presence of these silica nanoparticles.

Dr. Karjoo is a board certified chief pathologist with years of experience in treating patients with Morgellons disease. He has found the root cause of this distressing situation and has successfully treated patients who suffer with this condition.The latest Morgellons disease research shows that this is a condition that can be cured, allowing patients the freedom to get back to a normal life. So, if you have noticed such symptoms, you should contact Dr. Karjoo at his Garden Grove Clinic, CA, for a free consultation.
